At the recent National Franchising Conference held in Surfers Paradise October 10-12, 2010 and in front of over 400 members of the franchising community, our very own John Brown was inducted into the FCA Hall of Fame.
John Brown gained a significant standing amongst his peers, even in the early days of his franchising career in the early 1980s. John was a Bedshed Franchisee here in Western Australia with five outlets to his name. John has served two terms as a Director for the FCA on the National Board and has held the Position as WA Chapter President on more than one occasion during his 30 years in the franchising sector. In 2001 John was awarded the Paddy Thompson Contribution Award in franchising for his ‘significant and ongoing contribution to the sector’
In addition to his peers, John has also had an extended influence on the broader business community. Many CEO’s and businesses have not only benefited from Johns advice, but, perhaps more importantly, many successful brands have cited John’s commercial influence upon their success; in particular Chooks Fresh and Tasty and Ranger Camping Outdoors to name a couple.
To celebrate John’s outstanding achievement, we had a WA Dinner at CoCo’s Restaurant last Tuesday 26th October.
Sit back and watch the slideshow!!
